But Bialik has the help of her 11-year-old son Miles to communicate with fans. The actress posted an Instagram video of Miles reading her messages out loud as she's typing them.

"This is my son, Miles, talking. I sprained my vocal chords and I can't speak -- it really sucks," Miles said on behalf of his mom. "So, we're having a silent video with me talking. I can't talk because my vocal chords are sprained."

"Anyone else having issues with celebs disrobing in the name of empowerment? I'm sure you're not surprised that I do and I think you should, too!" the Big Bang Theory star wrote in the video's description, adding, "Is the way to inspire young girls' confidence to equate nakedness with empowerment?"

Bialik begins by saying that she is not a prude or trying to fat-shame, and understands that we live in a culture that embraces sexuality.

"I'm not going to lie, I have spent some of my life wishing I was pretty and skinny like other women," she adds. "But

The Big Bang Theory star posted the photo of them together on Instagram, with the caption, “He looks more like me than I do. Yes. He played my older brother on #blossom. He is helping unzip my dress outside of a dive bar in the village. I love him. @mikestoyanov we are still so much fun after all these years!!!”

Blossom, which aired for five seasons on NBC, premiered in 1990 and ended in 1995. The show centered on Blossom Russo,

Twenty five years ago this week, the sitcom Blossom debuted on NBC. Star Mayim Bialik was only 15 when the show began airing regularly on Jan. 3, 1991, and over the course of five seasons, viewers watched her character, Blossom Russo, learn a whole lot of major life lessons.

In fact, the show often made a point of prefacing these episodes with an intro voiceover from Bialik herself, who'd announce "Tonight, on a very special Blossom," just to let viewers know that they were in for some heavy stuff.

In honor of the show's silver anniversary, we're listing off the most special of those very special episodes.

If you're feeling glum about the state of the world today, just watch basic cable. There, you'll stumble across a number of current shows set in past decades -- or reruns from a few decades ago -- and you'll be reminded that things weren't any better back then.

This past week saw the Season 1 finale (and perhaps the series finale) of "Halt and Catch Fire," the AMC drama about '80s techies trying to build a then-revolutionary new portable computer. Unlike many of the other period shows built on the "Mad Men" model, this one doesn't make the past look sexy; the clothes and décor are as tacky as they should for a series set in 1983, and the cutting-edge gadgetry all looks clunky and slow to today's eyes. (The computer the characters are trying to build is considered lightweight at 15 pounds.) The season built toward the unveiling in the penultimate episode of the machine,

The Blossom cast reunited and it made us feel all sorts of nostalgia, especially for 1990s fashion. The hats! The jeans! The plaid! You know what we're talking about, and so do Mayim Bialik, Joey Lawrence, Jenna von Oÿ and Michael Stoyanov. The quartet got together to host The Hub's marathon heralding the return of Blossom (reruns) to TV starting on Friday, July 11 and E! has an exclusive look and some surprising information about some of those classic clothes. In the video above, von Oÿ and Bialik reminisce about those floppy hats (you had one) and how they became such a signature part of the series. "My character wore them less than you," Bialik says. "I think mine...

Blossom reruns started airing on Hub Network this week (weekdays at 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. Et), and if the ’90s bug hasn’t bitten you, it could happen Friday night: The cast reunited for the first time in 20 years to film spots that will air during a three-hour marathon (starting July 11 at 9 p.m. Et).

The '90s NBC sitcom Blossom may have seemed like a blip on the TV radar, but the show was responsible for launching a few major careers, is remembered for being way ahead of its time, coining a few catchphrases and singlehandedly putting the flower hat on the map.

Debuting July Fourth weekend of 1990, Blossom starred the 15-year-oldMayim Bialik as a precocious teen adjusting to life and coming of age with her mom out of the picture. Her dad Nick (Ted Wass) was a musician sometimes on the road, her oldest brother Anthony (Michael Stoyanov) was a recovering alcoholic and her brother Joey (Joey Lawrence) was the stereotypical dumb jock. Jenna Von Oy played Blossom's fast-talking best friend.

The Russo family recently reunited, nearly 20 years after the show went off the air, to celebrate Blossom's return to the small screen. Starting July 7, reruns of the '90s show – chock-full of dated sartorial splendor – will air on The Hub Network. Costars Mayim Bialik, Joey Lawrence, Michael Stoyanov and People.com blogger Jenna von Oy gathered together for a photo shoot to help promote the show's resurrection, even taking a few selfies.

The sitcom, which ran for five seasons, told the story of Blossom (Bialik) and her

To celebrate, the cast got together to host a marathon. Mayim Bialik, who played the titular hat-loving character, shared photos from the shoot on her social media pages.

Beloved '90s classic Blossom is coming to the Hub Network in July, which prompted a promotional reunion gathering. Cast members Mayim Bialik (Blossom, duh), Jenna Von Oy (her Bff, Six), Michael Stoyanov (her oldest brother, Tony), and Joey Lawrence (her other brother, Joey) gathered today, with a few goofy Twitter and Instagram photos to prove it. For some reason, however, Ted Wass, who played Blossom's dad, was not invited. We're too good for Papa Russo now? In our opinionation, he deserves to be included.

Nineties nostalgia has been kicked into overdrive lately, with casts of classic series like "The Wonder Years" hosting reunions in recent weeks. Now, "Blossom" is getting in on the action, too, with a new set of photos that hit the web this week.

Bialik shared snaps of the event on her Twitter account Monday, some professional and some candid, and all full of joy. The actress remarked that everyone "still look[s] like young whippersnappers," and we have to agree. Here's a cute selfie:

Space Station 76 begins with a narration musing on the impermanence and isolation of asteroidal paths. It’s the overarching metaphor in a film that is hilariously set in a nostalgic, 1970s version of the future and populated with hurt, dysfunctional, and yearning characters.

Glen (Patrick Wilson) is the alcoholic, abrasive, and suicidal captain of the Omega 76; Jessica (Liv Tyler) is new aboard and although much more competent than her counterparts, she is struggling with her own maternal inabilities; Ted (Matt Bomer) is an earnest but naive mechanic who lives with Misty (Marisa Coughlan), his philandering wife, and their lonely, precocious daughter Sunshine (Kylie Rogers). Together, this motley cast of characters explores what it means to live in a future built on expectations from the past. What happens when
